Semper Fi, George. Douglas Munro's story, along with his shipmate, Navy PO Samuel B. Roberts, never fails to move me. As for Munro, what can you add to a write up like that? A MOH submitted by Chesty Puller himself?? Ooh rah!!
Yeah, well, we share a bond only Mud ducks and Jarheads understand
i.e., We share a common enemy .... hehehehehe
I hear you about the latest Munro -- too bad she was built ...down there. I am the proud son of two Bath Iron Works retirees
.... "Bath built is best built"
And there is no need to thank me for my service -- the Marine Corps was far better to me and my family than I deserved.
It sent us to to one tropical island island paradise after another -- which is why I always felt that I need to thank the taxpayers, not the other way around
